Genshin Impact Character Builds

Nefer

Seeds of Deceit do not deal damage, and they cannot enable Hyperbloom or Burgeon. They are strictly to enhance Nefer's Elemental Burst and add Lunar buffs to her Elemental Skill.
To maximize the effect of Seeds of Deceit, focus on building Nefer with Elemental Mastery (EM) and Energy Recharge (ER) to enhance her Elemental Burst and Elemental Skill capabilities.
When using Seeds of Deceit, consider the following:

• They provide a bonus effect that enhances Nefer's Elemental Burst damage.
• They add a 20% Lunar buff to Nefer's Elemental Skill under certain conditions.

Flins

To maximize Flins' damage potential, it is essential to include another Moonsign character in the team. This allows him to access the full capabilities of his Lunar Companion, significantly increasing his overall combat effectiveness.
The Moonsign synergy is crucial for Flins, as it enables consistent Elemental Mastery (EM) and Energy Recharge (ER) loops. Pairing him with another Moonsign character enhances his damage output through the Moonlight Moonsign resonance effect.
For optimal team composition:

• Include a secondary Moonsign character like Heizou or Cyno to trigger resonance effects.
• Focus on building Flins' Elemental Mastery (EM) to maximize his Lunar Companion's damage potential.

Aino

Aino's A1 talent allows her Elemental Burst to attack more frequently and have a larger AoE DMG if Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam is active. This requires 2 or more Nod-Krai characters in the party, and Aino herself counts towards this.
To maximize the effect of Aino's A1 talent, ensure that the party composition includes at least 2 Nod-Krai characters, including Aino herself, to activate Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam and enhance her Elemental Burst.

Lauma

Lauma's Burst will typically buff 36 instances of bloom-related damage, this is per target so in AoE it will deplete a lot faster.
Lauma's hold Elemental Skill will consume Verdant Dew stacks (obtained by triggering Lunar-Bloom reaction every 2.5s) - It is recommended to have 2-3 stacks before casting hold Elemental Skill, else tap Elemental Skill to conserve Verdant Dew stacks
To optimize Lauma's Elemental Skill, consider the following:

• Trigger Lunar-Bloom reaction to obtain Verdant Dew stacks
• Have 2-3 Verdant Dew stacks before using hold Elemental Skill
• Use tap Elemental Skill to conserve Verdant Dew stacks when necessary

Ineffa

Birgitta stays on-field longer than both of Ineffa's Elemental Skill and Burst individual cooldowns, meaning that Birgitta has 100% field uptime.
When Ineffa has higher Energy Recharge requirements (typically 150%+), building ER to use her Burst every rotation results in slightly less personal damage in exchange for more uptime on her teamwide buff. Teams that focus more on Ineffa's personal damage will want to use her Burst every other rotation and ignore ER.

Dahlia

Dahlia's shield will take overflow damage when broken. This occurs before it is renewed with a Benison stack.
Dahlia's A4 passive is maximized at 40,000 HP.

Skirk

As Skirk uses a special energy system, her "Elemental Energy" is always 0. This means she does not benefit from Energy Recharge, Energy generation.
First Rotation with big Burst ready:

• Q > E > N5 > CA > 2N5 > CA > N5

• E > N5 > Q > 2N5 > CA > N5

Escoffier

Escoffier's Hold Skill can provide you with up to 10 special delicious dishes per week, but does not help you with cooking your enemies, so avoid using it during combat.
To maximize the use of Escoffier's Skill, consider the following:

• Use it in a safe location, away from enemies and danger.
• Combine it with other cooking methods to obtain a variety of dishes.
• Keep in mind that Escoffier's Skill has a weekly limit, so plan your cooking accordingly.

Ifa

Ifa's healing by itself is generally not enough to fulfill Furina's Fanfare, so it's recommended to pair him with another healer, most notably being Sayu.
To maximize healing output, consider the following:

• Pair Ifa with Sayu for a well-rounded healing composition
• Focus on building Ifa with Elemental Mastery (EM) and Energy Recharge (ER) to support his healing capabilities

Iansan

Iansan's buff is based on 3 factors:

• Iansan's Total ATK
• 54 Nightsoul Points
• Kinetic Energy Scale

Varesa

Optimal Combo 2[EN1P] > Q > 2[CP] > EN1P > 2[EN1P] > Q or EN1P / CPCP > team > EN1P > Q > 2[EN1P] > Q > 2 [EN1P] > Q (Alternate EN1P and CPCP) CP = Charged Plunge Short hold E when starting the rotation with Obsidian Codex (4) will result in the highest damage on average

• Use Obsidian Codex (4) for the highest damage output
• Alternate between EN1P and CPCP for optimal elemental application

Yumemizuki Mizuki

Lan Yan

Lan Yan's shield can undergo Elemental Absorption, meaning that her shield can absorb PHEC (Pyro/Hydro/Electro/Cryo) and become more resistant to the element it has absorbed.
Lan Yan has to make contact with an enemy upon skill cast for the absorption to take place.

Traveler (Pyro)

The Traveler's Elemental Skill has 2 variations: Their Tap Skill will form a ring around the active character and will deal damage when close to an enemy. Their Hold Skill will deal damage as a conjoined attack whenever the active character deals damage.
Key points to consider when using the Traveler's Elemental Skill include:

• Understanding the Elemental Reactions that can be triggered by the Skill
• Positioning the active character to maximize damage from the conjoined attack
• Using the Skill in combination with other characters' Elemental Skills and Bursts

Citlali

Mavuika

Mavuika uses Fighting Spirit instead of Energy, thus any Energy Recharge substats become deadweight on her.
She gains Fighting Spirit via a Natlan character consuming Nightsoul Points, OR, the Active Character dealing damage with Normal Attacks.
Mavuika only needs half of her Burst gauge to use her Elemental Burst, however, her Burst will deal more damage the more Fighting Spirit she has accumulated.
A relatively easy, but still performing well onfield combo for melt is generally

• 3 CA > Final slash > dash > 3 CA > Final slash
• or 4 CA > jump > 3 CA > Final slash

• 5 [2 CA > dash]
• or for excessive/permanent cryo/hydro aura on the enemy 6 [CA > dash > NA ]

Chasca

Chasca's bullets follow the 'last in first out' rule, meaning the last loaded bullet hits first, while the Anemo bullet in slot 1 hits last.
Chasca ideally needs 3 different types of PHEC (Pyro/Hydro/Electro/Cryo) to maximize the conversion rate and Damage Bonus from her passive Bullet Trick.
Ideal Combo*: 4[CA6]

• The number after 'CA' refers to the number of Bullets loaded.

Ororon

Xilonen

Xilonen's Burst will heal the active character at intervals if 2 or more of her Samplers had their elemental types changed. Otherwise, she will deal additional instances of Geo DMG. To activate the Samplers, use E > 2N.
The activation of Samplers is based on the elemental types changed, which can be achieved by using characters with different elemental abilities.
Key points to consider:

• Healing occurs when 2 or more Samplers have changed elemental types
• Additional Geo DMG is dealt when less than 2 Samplers have changed elemental types

Kinich

When paired with Xiangling, spin counter clockwise so her Pyronado can hit opponents more frequently, increasing the chances of triggering Melt or Vaporize reactions with Pyro and Cryo or Hydro elements respectively.
To maximize the effect, ensure Xiangling has a high EM (Elemental Mastery) and ER (Energy Recharge) to maintain a consistent Pyronado uptime.
Recommended team compositions include:

• Pairing Xiangling with a Cryo or Hydro character to trigger Melt or Vaporize reactions
• Using a Sacrificial Fragments or Noblesse Oblige Artifact set to increase EM and Elemental Burst damage

Kachina

Turbo Twirly is considered a Geo Construct.
It is involved in Geo Elemental Reactions and can be used to trigger Crystallize Reactions for Geo characters.
To utilize Turbo Twirly effectively, consider the following:

• Pair it with characters who can provide Elemental Reactions such as Albedo or Zhongli for increased damage.
• Use it in Liyue or other Geo-rich locations to maximize its potential.
• Focus on 40% to 80% Energy Recharge (ER) for optimal Elemental Burst (EB) usage.

Mualani

Emilie

Sigewinne

At C1, Sigewinne instead gains 18 Convalescence stacks.
This change affects Sigewinne's overall healing and support capabilities in the team.
To maximize Sigewinne's potential, consider the following:

• Pair Sigewinne with characters that can trigger Elemental Reactions and Bursts to increase Convalescence stack gain.
• Use Sigewinne's Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst to apply Elemental effects and trigger Reactions.
• Focus on EM and ER when building Sigewinne to improve Elemental application and Burst damage.

Team Composition:

• Start with a Skill to trigger elemental reactions and apply team buffs
• Follow up with CA to deal damage and apply bonus effects
• End with a 6N3D or 3N5D rotation to maximize damage output

Chiori

Gaming

Xianyun

Xianyun is a versatile character in Genshin Impact, but her Skill can be time-intensive to use. A simple E Q rotation is ideal for most teams. For optimal performance, consider the following:

• Use Xianyun's Elemental Skill (ES) to apply Electro and deal damage.
• Follow up with Xianyun's Elemental Burst (EB) for increased damage and crowd control.
• Keep in mind that most teams will not use all three uses of Xianyun's ES, as it is too time-intensive.

• Hydro application for Electro-Charged reactions.
• Pyro application for Superconduct reactions.

• Winds of the Dawn
• Winds of the Dawn (Night)

• Elemental Mastery (EM) for increased elemental damage.
• Energy Recharge (ER) for increased ES and EB usage.

• Xianyun as the main Electro DPS.
• A Hydro or Pyro support character for reaction applications.

Chevreuse

Navia

Full Combo: E N3D N2 E N3D N2 The final N2 is omitted if units like Fischl or Xiangling are used during Bennett's Burst before Navia.
Key considerations for this combo:

• Utilize Elemental Reactions and Burst effects to maximize damage.
• Choose characters with high Energy Recharge (ER) to maintain Burst uptime.
• Consider Artifact sets that provide Elemental Mastery (EM) and Bonus effects like CRIT Rate or CRIT Damage.

Charlotte

Furina

Furina's kit, which includes HP drain and Burst mechanics, encourages the use of teamwide healers.
This is because her abilities can leave the team vulnerable to damage, making it essential to have a healer to provide sustain.

Wriothesley

Neuvillette

Freminet

Rotation:
E Q N2 E 3[N1 E N2 (EM or ER)]
EM = Elemental Skill, Q = Elemental Burst, N = Normal Attack

Pressure Level 4 Note:
You can perform a Normal Attack instead of using Elemental Skill at Pressure Level 4, because this also ends the Pers Timer state.

Character Builds:

• For optimal results, consider using a Hydro character with a Hydro Elemental Skill and a Pyro Elemental Burst.
• Use a Pyro character with a Pyro Elemental Skill and a Cryo Elemental Burst for a ER reaction.

• Hydro Character + Pyro Character + Electro Character for a Superconduct reaction.
• Cryo Character + Pyro Character + Hydro Character for a ER reaction.

• Farm Elemental Orbs in the Winds of the Dawn area.
• Farm Elemental Orbs in the Winds of the Dawn area.

• Use the Gladiator artifact set for increased ATK and CRIT Rate.
• Use the Emblem of Severed Fate artifact set for increased ATK and CRIT Rate.

Lynette

Lyney

Traveler (Hydro)

When building a team, avoid using Hydro Traveler unless necessary for Pneuma mechanics and you don't own the Sword of Descension or Sword of Narzissenkreuz yet.
Note that Traveler does not generate particles if interrupted during the hold state of their Skill.
Consider the following when using Traveler:

• Avoid using Traveler for Elemental Reactions that require consistent particle generation
• Use Traveler only when necessary for specific game mechanics or Reaction setups

Kirara

Baizhu

Baizhu's Elemental Skill has a 2-3 second delay between cast time and heal received. When swapping to low HP allies after Baizhu's rotation, keep this in mind. When using Baizhu, consider the following:

• Timing is crucial: wait for the 2-3 second delay to pass before switching to a low HP ally.
• Use Cryo to apply the Glacial Quake reaction, which amplifies Baizhu's healing.
• Combine with other healing sources, such as Zhongli's Elemental Skill, to maximize healing output.

Kaveh

Kaveh's best combo is N3D, which is 3 Normal Attacks canceled at the end with a Dash.
This combo is effective for dealing consistent damage and can be used in various game mechanics and Reaction situations.
To maximize Kaveh's damage output, consider using 4 or 5-star weapons and Artifact sets that provide Elemental Mastery (EM) and Energy Recharge (ER) bonus effects.
Some recommended Artifact sets for Kaveh include:

• Emblem of Severed Fate for increased EM and ER
• Noblesse Oblige for increased Elemental Burst damage

Mika

Dehya

Dehya as a support character is not reliant on her Elemental Burst to support the team as a damage tank.
This is because Dehya's kit provides consistent damage reduction and healing to the team through her Elemental Skill and passive talents, making her a reliable support character even without relying on her Elemental Burst.

Alhaitham

Genshin Impact Character Rotation Guide Character: Albedo Weapon: Sword Artifact Set: Viridescent Venerer Basic Rotations:

• Burst up: Q > E > N2D + 2N3D + N1C + 2N2C
• Burst down: E > N1C + 5N2C + N1

• Use Elemental Mastery (EM) for elemental reactions
• Keep Elemental Reactions (ER) in mind for optimal damage
• Maintain a 90% EM build for Albedo
• Use Viridescent Venerer artifact set for elemental reactions

• Albedo (Catalyst) + Keqing (Electro Sword)

• Winds of the Past (Electro enemies)
• Wine and Song (Electro enemies)

• Use 20% Elemental Mastery (EM) on artifacts
• Use 20% Elemental Reactions (ER) on artifacts

Yaoyao

When Yaoyao leaves the field, the additional Yueguis summoned by the Burst are removed.
To trigger the passive of Favonius Lance, you can perform Skill followed by two Normal Attacks in order.
Here are the steps to follow:

• Use Yaoyao's Skill to summon Yueguis
• Perform two Normal Attacks to trigger the passive of Favonius Lance

Faruzan

Faruzan Rotation Guide For funneling particles to Faruzan:

• Elemental Skill --> Charged Shot --> Burst

• Elemental Skill --> Burst --> Charged Shot

• Your Burst will start activating Pressurized Collapses instead of Charged Shot.

• Noblesse Oblige for increased Burst damage
• Shimenawa of the Memory for increased Elemental Mastery

• Wanderlust Invocation domain for increased drop rates

Wanderer

Desert Pavilion and Signature Weapon Rotation: (Q) E CA (N3 repeat)
Signature Weapon Rotation (non Desert Pavilion): (Q) E (N3 repeat)

Desert Pavilion Rotation: (Q) E CA (N2C repeat)
Other Artifact Sets Rotation: (Q) E (N2C repeat)

Shimenawa's Reminiscence Rotation: E (N2C repeat) (Q)

Swirl Driver Rotation: E (N3C repeat)

Layla

Nahida

Nilou

Candace

In some teams, Candace's hold Elemental Skill cooldown is too long for rotations to work properly, so if Candace isn't C4, it's recommended to avoid getting hit and to do a tap Skill as quick as possible.
To optimize Candace's performance, consider the following:

• Avoid taking damage to minimize Elemental Skill cooldown
• Use tap Skill to quickly apply Elemental effects
• Invest in ER and EM to improve Candace's overall Elemental damage

Cyno

Rotations: Thundering Fury (4): E N1 Q E 6 [N4E] Non-Thundering Fury: E N1 Q N2E 3 [N5 N2E]

• E = Elemental Skill
• N = Normal Attack
• Q = Elemental Burst

• Use accurate Genshin Impact terminology
• Keep all game mechanics accurate
• Maintain build recommendations
• Preserve team compositions
• Keep farming locations if mentioned

Dori

It is generally advised to use 2 elemental skills per burst rotation, as this helps to alleviate her otherwise extreme Energy requirements.
This strategy is particularly useful for characters with high Energy costs, such as Nilou or Yelan, and can be applied in various Domains and Spiral Abyss levels.
To further optimize Energy efficiency, consider the following:

• Using elemental skills with low Energy costs
• Equipping Artifacts with Energy Recharge (ER) or Elemental Mastery (EM) bonus effects
• Building a team with characters that provide Energy generation through their elemental skills or burst

Collei

Collei Rotation Guide

• Typical Rotation: Skill > Burst > Swap
• Rotation with Polar Star: N1 > tap Charged Attack > Skill > Burst > Swap

• Utilize Elemental Reactions for increased damage
• Manage Energy levels for consistent Burst usage

Tighnari

Tighnari Combos There are three recommended combos that Tighnari can perform: 1. Skill -> Charged Attack -> Burst -> Charged Attack (x2) - This is the most mechanically difficult combo. However, this combo allows Tighnari to have both his Burst affected by A1 and funnel particles from his Skill to his next Burst.
2. Skill -> Charged Attack (x3) -> Burst - Allows Tighnari's Burst to benefit from A1. However, this combo doesn't allow Tighnari to funnel particles from his Skill into his next Burst.
3. Skill -> Burst -> Charged Attack (x3) - Simplest combo to use, and generally weakest combo though it allows pre-funneling. His Burst does not benefit from A1 in this combo. It is recommended at C4 due to the EM buff. To perform these combos, follow these steps:

• Hold Elemental Mastery artifacts for combos that benefit from A1.
• Use a Catalyst to maximize Elemental Skills' effects.
• Determine your Charged Attack and Burst order based on your team composition and needs.

Shikanoin Heizou

Traveler (Dendro)

Kuki Shinobu

To achieve optimal Elemental Reactions and damage, aim for around 850-950+ Elemental Mastery. This target may vary depending on whether you use an Elemental Mastery weapon or not.
Consider the following factors when building your character:

• Choose a suitable weapon that complements your character's Elemental Type
• Select an Artifact set that provides bonus effects for your character's Elemental Type
• Optimize your character's ER and EM for maximum damage output

Yelan

Kamisato Ayato

Ayato's Elemental Burst should be activated before using his skill to maximize his Normal Attack DMG. Getting enough Energy Recharge for this is important, and varies based on team. Since the casting time is so long, it may not be worth snapshotting into buffs.
The amount of slashes Ayato can do during an Elemental Skill window is sometimes influenced by the player's set FPS.

Yae Miko

To maximize Yae Miko's damage, start your rotations with her Elemental Skill to amplify her Elemental Burst damage. The recommended Burst combo is:

• Elemental Skill > Elemental Skill > Elemental Skill > Elemental Burst > Elemental Skill > Elemental Skill > Elemental Skill

Shenhe

Yun Jin

Arataki Itto

Gorou

Gorou's Elemental Burst duration can be extended from 9 seconds to 12 seconds with C2 if the required Crystallize shields are obtained. This allows his teammates to gain the Geo DMG% 15% bonus for a longer duration, making it preferable to use Burst as the last ability before swapping to the DPS.
To maximize the Geo DMG% bonus, consider the following:

• Use Gorou's Elemental Burst before swapping to the DPS to extend the Geo DMG% bonus duration
• Obtain the required Crystallize shields to extend the Elemental Burst duration from 9 seconds to 12 seconds
• Utilize the 15% Geo DMG% bonus to increase the team's overall damage output

Thoma

Sangonomiya Kokomi

Kokomi's Elemental Burst dynamically alters her skill's damage, this means that you cannot use her Burst to snapshot the buff onto the Skill and swap out. To maximize her damage output, consider the following build recommendations:

• Weapon: Widsith or Staff of Homa for increased Elemental Mastery (EM)
• Artifact Set: Shimenawa of Memory for increased EM and Elemental Burst (EB) damage
• Substat Priorities: EM, ER, and CR

• Hydro application: Barbara or Xingqiu for increased Hydro application
• Elemental Reaction: Hydro + Pyro for increased damage output
• Support characters: Albedo or Jean for increased Elemental Mastery and Elemental Burst damage

• Wanderer's Paradise
• Watery Domains

Aloy

Kujou Sara

For her Elemental Skill to generate particles, you need to perform a Charged Shot to place a Crowfeather after casting her Elemental Skill. If the Crowfeather explosion hits an enemy, it generates 3 particles.
Crowfeathers dropped through Sara's C2 do NOT generate particles.

Raiden Shogun

Raiden Shogun Rotation Guide Start your rotation with Raiden Shogun's Elemental Skill. Burst Combo:

• Burst > 4N4D (Recommended for general use)
• Burst > 3N3C + N1C (Recommended with Attack Speed)

Sayu

Elemental Burst Optimization
To maximize Elemental Burst (EB) particles, follow these steps: 1. Hold Skill to charge your Elemental Burst. 2. Immediately press the skill button to release the Elemental Burst and generate more particles. EB Particle Generation
This technique is particularly useful for characters with high Elemental Burst damage, such as Keqing with the Staff of Homa and Viridescent Venerer set. Team Composition
For optimal results, pair your character with a team that can provide a consistent Elemental Reaction, such as:

• Keqing (Electro) with Xingqiu (Hydro)
• Keqing (Electro) with Barbara (Hydro)

Yoimiya

Yoimiya's hardest hitting part of her Normal Attack string is her N5, and in Vaporize teams you should be Vaporizing the N1 (first hit), N3 and N5.
To maximize Vaporize damage, consider the following:

• Use Yoimiya's N1, N3, and N5 to trigger Vaporize reactions
• Build Yoimiya with Elemental Mastery (EM) and Energy Recharge (ER) for optimal Vaporize team performance

Kamisato Ayaka

Ayaka's Charged Attack, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst can hit enemies sucked inside Venti's Elemental Burst.
Her Elemental Burst also stays in place on frozen enemies and slightly knocks enemies away when they're not frozen.

Traveler (Electro)

It is not recommended to level Elemental Skill and Burst past talent level 7 as the amount of Energy generated does not increase.
This is because the Energy generation is capped and further investment will not provide significant returns, allowing players to focus on other aspects of their build, such as Elemental Mastery (EM) or Energy Recharge (ER).
To optimize character builds, consider the following:

• Focus on leveling Elemental Skill and Burst up to talent level 7 for most characters
• Prioritize Energy Recharge (ER) and Elemental Mastery (EM) for Elemental reactions and team synergy

Kaedehara Kazuha

Kazuha's elemental burst absorbs elements in the following priority: Pyro > Hydro > Electro > Cryo. This absorption can occur from both the active character and enemies.
For example, standing in Bennett's elemental burst will result in Kazuha's elemental burst infusing Pyro, as Bennett's elemental burst applies Pyro to the active character.

Eula

Normal Attack combo while no Burst:

• Normal Attack Spam > Tap Skill > Normal Attack Spam > Tap Skill

• Tap Skill > Burst > 4 Normal Attack > Hold Skill > 4 Normal Attack

• Tap Skill > Burst > Tap Skill > 4 Normal Attack > Dash Cancel > 2 Normal Attack > Hold Skill > 2 Normal Attack

• NA = Normal Attack

Yanfei

Yanfei's A4 being reliant on a Crit hit makes her ideal Crit Ratio skew toward 3:4 and 3:5 instead of the standard 1:2.
This is because Yanfei's damage output is heavily influenced by her Crit hits, making a higher Crit Ratio more desirable for her build.
To achieve this, players can focus on building Yanfei with CRIT percentage-increasing artifacts and weapons, such as the Crit-oriented Artifact sets.
Some possible Artifact sets for Yanfei include:

• Shimenawa's Reminiscence for its CRIT percentage bonus
• Emblem of Severed Fate for its Energy Recharge bonus to support Yanfei's Elemental Burst

Rosaria

To maximize Rosaria's damage potential, be sure to cast her Elemental Skill before her Elemental Burst as the Crit Rate granted by her Ascension 1 Talent will be included with her Ascension 4 Talent Bonus as well.
Rosaria's Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst can be Reverse Melted (1.5x) with another Pyro applier for some quick and powerful damage, utilizing the Melt Reaction for increased damage output.

Hu Tao

When ending Hu Tao's combos with an Elemental Burst, if you do not jump/dash cancel the last charged attack, the Elemental Burst will still benefit from Hu Tao's Elemental Skill.
It is recommended to use cancels when performing your Hu Tao combos as to maximize damage.
For Hu Tao combos, the following patterns can be used:

• N2CJ for C0
• N2CD for C1
• N3CJ/N3CD can be used to conserve stamina at the cost of damage

Xiao

Xiao's Optimal Skill Rotation:
Skill -> Skill -> Burst -> Plunge Combo

Xiao's Plunge Combo:
Single Target:

• Normal Attack -> Charged Attack -> High Plunge (no collision possible)
• Normal Attack -> Charged Attack -> Low Plunge (collision only possible on Low Plunge)
• High Plunge spam (collision possible on High Plunge)

• High Plunge spam

• Use Xiao's Elemental Mastery (EM) to increase Elemental Skill damage.
• Equip Wolf's Gravestone or Gladiator's Finale artifact set for increased Elemental Burst damage.
• Consider a 5-piece Gladiator's Finale set for increased Elemental Burst damage.

• Xiao (main DPS)
• Keqing or Qiqi (support)
• Barbara or Heizou (healer)

• Winds of the Dawn (for Xiao's Elemental Mastery materials)
• Wanderer's Paradise (for Xiao's Elemental Burst materials)

Ganyu

Ganyu's Elemental Burst should not be used in most melt teams, as it can lead to Charged Attacks not being able to trigger melt.
This is because Ganyu's Elemental Burst can overwrite the Pyro element applied by other characters, preventing the melt reaction from occurring.
To avoid this issue, teams using Ganyu for melt should consider alternative strategies, such as:

• Using Ganyu as a sub-DPS and relying on other characters for melt reactions
• Building Ganyu with high EM to increase the chances of triggering melt with her Normal Attacks
• Using characters with high ER to ensure consistent Pyro application and melt reactions

Albedo

Albedo's Elemental Skill particle generation is completely based on RNG, similar to Zhongli, but with better odds of around 20-30% chance to generate particles.
This makes Albedo a reliable EM battery for his teammates, especially in teams that rely on Elemental Reactions like Melt or Vaporize.
To maximize Albedo's particle generation, it's recommended to use him with a high ER Artifact set and a Weapon that provides EM or ER bonus effects.
Some popular team compositions that utilize Albedo's particle generation include:

• Albedo as the main EM battery for a Melt team
• Albedo as a support character for a Vaporize team

Xinyan

Zhongli

Diona

Diona's Elemental Skill grants you a Cryo shield which allows cleansing. Every time you swap characters with the shield up, it applies Cryo. This acts as a cleanse.
This cleanse can be particularly useful in certain team compositions, such as those that rely on Elemental Reactions or Elemental Absorption.
To maximize the effectiveness of Diona's shield, consider the following:

• Swap characters frequently to apply Cryo to enemies and trigger Elemental Reactions
• Use Diona's shield in combination with other Elemental abilities to create powerful Reaction chains
• Pair Diona with characters that can take advantage of the Cryo application, such as those with Pyro or Electro abilities

Tartaglia

Genshin Impact Game Note:
Skill Duration:
- For [C0]: Optimal durations are 7s, 9s, or 12s.
- For [C1]: Optimal durations are 9s, 11s, or 14s.

Melee Burst:
Use Melee Burst only in situations where you need only 1 rotation to clear, as the ER requirement to maintain burst uptime is quite high (170-190% ER). Always start your rotations with Ranged Burst, as it refunds energy to maintain your rotation well.

Skill Combo:
- Optimal: 2 NA + 1 CA
- Recommended: 3 NA + 1 CA
- Recommended (Rust or Thundering Pulse): 5 NA + 1 CA

NA = Normal Attack, CA = Charged Attack

Notes:
- The Optimal combo provides more damage but consumes more stamina.
- The Recommended combo provides slightly less damage but is stamina neutral and what most weapons should use.

Game Abbreviations:
- NA: Normal Attack
- CA: Charged Attack
- ER: Energy Recharge
- EM: Elemental Mastery

Formatting Rules:
- Separate different topics with line breaks
- Group related information together
- Use lists for multiple items/steps
- Keep game abbreviations (EM, ER, etc.)
- Format percentages consistently

Amber

Barbara

Barbara's skill, Healing Burst, provides a pulse of healing every 5 seconds. Each pulse imbues you with a Hydro status, which can be used for status-cleansing, particularly against Pyro elements. However, other elements may require additional pulses for cleansing. When using Barbara's skill, be aware that Hydro reacting with Cryo status will cause a Freeze reaction, immobilizing you in place. Therefore, consider the environment when utilizing her skill. To maximize Barbara's effectiveness, consider the following:

• Use her skill in conjunction with other characters to create a well-rounded team composition.
• Take into account the elemental reactions and synergies in your team.
• Be mindful of the Freeze reaction when using Barbara's skill in Cryo-infused environments.

• Hydro characters like Xingqiu or Keqing for additional elemental reactions.
• Pyro characters like Keqing or Yun Jin for Pyro reactions.

• Monstadt
• Winds of the Dawn

Beidou

Bennett

Bennett's C6 infuses melee weapons with Pyro, which can mess up a few teams. However, if you have C6 Bennett, you more than likely have some of the supports which those teams prefer over Bennett anyway.
This is particularly relevant for teams that rely on specific elemental reactions or bonus effects, as Bennett's C6 can disrupt their usual game mechanics and force them to adapt to the Pyro infusion.
Some teams may still prefer Bennett for his support capabilities and EM or ER benefits, but it ultimately depends on the specific team composition and playstyle.
When building a team with Bennett, consider the following:

• Choose artifact sets that complement Bennett's Pyro infusion and support capabilities, such as Noblesse Oblige or Crimson Witch of Flames.
• Consider the elemental balance of your team and how Bennett's C6 will affect it.
• Plan your team rotations and strategy around Bennett's Pyro infusion and support capabilities.

Chongyun

Chongyun's Elemental Burst is calculated as Claymore damage, which means it breaks Geo Structures / Shields at a much easier rate and can proc Shatter.
This makes Chongyun a valuable asset in certain team compositions, particularly those that rely on Geo reactions or need to break Geo shields quickly.
When building Chongyun, consider focusing on EM and ER to increase the damage output of his Elemental Burst.
Some recommended Artifact sets for Chongyun include:

• Noblesse Oblige for increased Elemental Burst damage
• Archaic Petra for increased Geo damage

• Zhongli for Geo resonance and shield support
• Xiangling for Pyro reactions and damage increase

Diluc

Diluc has a number of combos he can do during his uptime. N = Normal Attack, E = Elemental Skill, Q = Elemental Burst (N2 would equal 2 Normal Attacks)
His most common combo is Q N2 E N2 E N2 E. This fits perfectly into the buff window of his teams.
For high upfront damage, use E Q N1 E N1 E N1. This falls off significantly if the enemy isn't killed within this window.
A full rotation combo can look similar to Q N2 E N2 E N2 E N4 N3 E N1 E E. An example video can be found here.

Fischl

To maximize Oz's uptime, it is recommended to alternate between Fischl's Skill and Burst, as both abilities summon Oz.
This strategy allows for a high 100% uptime of Oz, making Fischl a valuable asset to the team.
When building Fischl, focus on Energy Recharge (ER) to minimize downtime and ensure consistent Oz summoning.
Some recommended Artifact sets for Fischl include:

• Noblesse Oblige for increased Elemental Burst damage
• Wanderer's Troupe for enhanced Elemental Mastery (EM)

Recommended Combos:

• With Thundering Fury (4): E 2 Normal Attacks 1 Charged Attack, E 2 Normal Attacks 1 Charged Attack
• Without Thundering Fury (4): E 4 Normal Attacks 1 Charged Attack

• E represents the character's Elemental Skill
• Q represents the character's Elemental Burst
• N# represents the number of Normal Attacks
• C represents the Charged Attack

Klee

Klee has access to a number of animation cancels that allow her to deal damage with her talents faster than normal. Her N1 can be canceled through holding a directional key while clicking attack. This can be chained over and over again to produce a "machine gun" effect.
Her optimal combos include N1C and N2C.

• N1C is higher DPS but eats stamina faster
• N2C has more consistency in keeping enemies stunned and gives a higher chance of obtaining her A1 passive onto the following CA

Lisa

Lisa rotations can be optimized by consistently using her Elemental Skill and Burst every rotation, and weaving together Normal Attacks with her Tap Elemental Skill or Charged Attacks. As an example: Tap Elemental Skill Burst Tap Elemental Skill Charged Attack 1 Normal Attack Tap Elemental Skill Charged Attack Tap Elemental Skill …(Swap to teammates)… Tap Elemental Skill 3 Hold Elemental Skill 2[Normal AttackCharged Attack] Key terms:

• Normal Attack/NA = Normal Attack
• Charged Attack/CA = Charged Attack
• Elemental Skill/E = Elemental Skill (Tap Elemental Skill/tE = Tap, Hold Elemental Skill/hE = Hold)
• Burst/Q = Burst

Mona

Mona's Burst Damage with Vaporize 2.0x Multiplier:
To trigger the Vaporize 2.0x multiplier on Mona's burst damage:

• Apply Pyro on the enemy.
• Cast Mona's Burst (should react and remove Pyro status on the enemy after using Burst).
• Wait for 2.5 seconds for Mona's burst ICD (keep Mona on the field if you have Bennett, to keep the buff).
• Swap to a Pyro character and apply Pyro on the enemy.
• The Burst will pop after the enemy gets hit, applying Hydro and Vaporizing her damage.

Ningguang

Ningguang's Elemental Skill has a 6 second internal cooldown on generating energy. To maintain Elemental Burst uptime, wait 6 seconds to cast again if you need energy.
It is also worth noting that the skill breaks when cast on top of another Geo Structure. You can intentionally use a structure to break your first screen.

Noelle

Redhorn Build Notes: 1/2 Targets: N1>N2>N3>N4>dash/hop This isn't always feasible due to cast time (as well as knockback issues). Multiple Targets: N1>N2>N3>dash/hop With Redhorn, using Charged Attack can become more effective. While spinning, opening and closing either the map or adventurer's handbook once will allow you to bypass the 5 second restriction.
Note: This build is focused on maximizing Redhorn's damage output while using Charged Attack.

Traveler (Geo)

Venti

- When using Venti's Elemental Burst ( Elemental Burst), avoid swapping characters immediately after casting. Stay on-field to allow the 4-set Vermilion Violet perk to trigger on Swirl reactions first.
E > Q can help prevent this issue. - You can infuse Elemental effects onto Venti's Elemental Burst by walking into it with an Elemental Aura active on your character.
For example:

• Bennett's Elemental Burst (Fantastic Voyage) > Venti's Elemental Burst > Walk into the Burst to infuse Pyro.
